Litigation is more likely to be directed towards the over development of the land immediately adjacent to RWY 17. The B200 King Air aircraft became disabled very close to rotation, or just after lift-off. Arguably, if the DFO complex was not located within the airport boundary, less than 300m from the centre-line of RWY 17, the pilot would have had the option to recover to the ground within the confines of the airport!..
